Google Voice Search: Why iPhone, not Android?

As you know, Google recently announced that it plans to add voice search to iPhone software. This will allow you to dictate search queries just to your phone and receive search results in the form of web pages.

Surprisingly, this technology will not be applied only to the T-Mobile's G1 phone - the first commercial device where the Android operating system will work. Currently, voice search will be on iPhone only.

When Google introduced Android, some feared that the amount of development for other mobile operating systems would be reduced. But the Google mobile search team works separately from the Android group and is more committed to making their work as accessible as possible. “I want to bring the most significant applications to as many users as possible,” said Gummi Hafsteinsson, senior product manager of the mobile team. “We treat all major mobile platforms in the same way.”

G1 has a built-in function through which the user can call, calling only the name of the subscriber from the contact list - something that is not currently in the iPhone. And Android has its own application store, but there are no applications with voice search yet. “We make every effort to ensure that voice search can work on as many devices as possible,” says Hafsteinsson.

Google expects the new version of the Google Mobile App to be available on the iTunes App Store the other day.
